This is starting to feel like Microsoft in the 90s or IBM in the 80s. IBM brought a computer in every business. Microsoft took it from the server-room and put it on your desk. Apple took it from your desk and put it in your pocket. They are winning for now, but what goes up must come down.

Millions of souls mindlessly catapulting birds on their little devices while fed a steady diet of carefully curated media and apps. Rescue us, lady with the sledgehammer...
